Full Face Using ONLY MY MUM’S Make Up #MakeupMonday

I’m having far too much fun with this! I saw this challenge on youtube and the videos I’ve seen were HILARIOUS!

So today’s #MakeupMonday as the title suggest it’s going to be a Full Face Using ONLY MY MUM’S Make Up and also brushes (ok, brush… My mum uses ONE BRUSH!).

HOW???

To be fair most of the products she uses I got them for her but she’s like two shades DARKER than me and has DRY SKIN sooo after about 30 minutes, I’m a greasy mess.

That being said, I’ve always seen my mum wearing the same make up look, which I’m recreating, she is very minimal and neutral and my HIGH MANTAINCE ASS is not happy to not see brow products or a HIGHLIGHTER!

I hope you will enjoy this post and if you do this tag to PLEASE, TAG ME, I want to see it!

ALL I’VE USED:

Foundation:Maybelline Super Stay 24h in two shades darker than me, sorry I meantNude Beige… If you saw my review you would know I don’t like this foundation because it’s super cakey on me… Now imagine how CAKEY it can be if applied with my hands!

Concealer:Rimmel Wake Me Up Concealer, I can’t read the shade number, this is nice but far too dark for me.

Blush:Essence Matt Touch Blush in Peach Me Up, I gave it to her, it’s a pretty blush shade and guess what: I used the only brush to apply it!

No eyebrows…

Eyeshadow: No primer so it was creasing in 30 minutes, I tried to use the concealer as primer but it doesn’t work for me.

Anyway, this is when it gets interesting, that construction is something I made, it’s a depoted Sephora eyeshadow in her old Essence blush packaging cause the sephora one broke. It’s just a bronze shadow, I put it all over the lid… With my fingers, tried to blend it… To be fair, it’s not terrible, it blended nicely.

Eyeliner: Essence Long Lasting Eye Pencil in Hot Chocolate, I have this liner too, I love it, I just smudged it with my pinkie finger around my eyes.

Mascara: Essence Volume and Stylist Mascara, it’s not my favourite mascara but I like it, the problem here is that without lash curler my lashes look like crap!

Lipstick:Wycon Long Lasting Liquid Lipstick in 27, love this, not my favourite shade but this is one of my favourite formulas.

TA-DA! Here’s the masterpiece! I’m orange, greasy and I have no highlighter or brows… Just so you know, I’m trying to pose, but I couldn’t stop laughing… It’s terrible!

You did well with what you had! I keep wanting to do this challenge but my mum owns about 4 items of makeup apart from what I’ve donated to her and I’m pretty sure she has no brushes I just can’t do it 😓

LOL I love this so much!! it is not terrible hahaha you’re beautiful, but it’s really cool to see how products work for different people. your brows do look pretty damn good considering no brow makeup!

HAHA what a super creative idea!!!!! If my daughter were doing this (but she’s not even one, so definitely wouldn’t be, lucky for her….) she’d be like, “ummm why do you only have 2 eye shadow options” hahaha
